CLASP (Continuous lifestyle awareness through sweat platform): A novel sensor for simultaneous detection of alcohol and glucose from passive perspired sweat.

ABSTRACT: Wearable- IOT based low- cost platforms can enable dynamic lifestyle monitoring through enabling promising and exciting opportunities for wellness and chronic- disease management in personalized environments. Diabetic and pre- diabetic populations can modulate their alcohol intake by tracking their glycemic content continuously to prevent health risks through these platforms. We demonstrate the first technological proof of a combinatorial biosensor for continuous, dynamic monitoring of alcohol and glucose in ultra- low volumes (1-5 µL) of passive perspired sweat towards developing a wearable- IOT based platform. Non-invasive biosensing in sweat is achieved by a unique gold- zinc oxide (ZnO) thin film electrode stack fabricated on a flexible substrate suitable for wearable applications. The
